AREA:UUCP_HRDWR I'm looking for some information about how I can use a SCSI ADIC tape unit to back up my AMIGA HD. I remember a thread here where someone had successfully achieved it. Does anyone remember this thread, or who it was? Any information will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I know nothing about tape backups, except that now that I have a 100meg drive, and will probably buy a larger 300/600, I do NOT want to backup these things to floppy. What are some good, well tested units, prices etc. that will work on the A3000? Any info appreciated.

Speaking of tape backup units. Has anybody had any experience using an Exabyte 2 gig tape backup on an Amiga? What results? What about the new 10 gig model?

AREA:UUCP_HRDWR Dave, I have had no success on a reply to my help request pertaining to how to hook up an IBM SCSI drive to the AMIGA. I was told there is a PD software package that contains very generic programs to do this, but I have not found it yet. I'm surprised that no one on this net has one working. Everyone must like buying a 2nd HD or using a lot of disks! The other thing I'd like to do is get an IBM CD ROM talking to the AMIGA. I've got one of them kicking around, along with some disks. In either case, I don't want anything fancy, just a simple driver so I can read the CD ROM or read/write to tape. Maybe this will catch so eyes. H E L P ! ! Talk to you later.

I'm looking for a tape backup system for my 2000. I've got a Maxtor LXT200S drive with a GVP series II SCSI controller. I was looking in the range of about 40 Megs per tape or cartridge. Are there DAT backup systems available, and if so, what are the tradeoffs between DAT and tape (cost, performance, capacity). Please e-mail, and I'll post a summary if there is enough requests. -- -------------------------------------------------- | Nishan Sandhar | University of the Pacific | | nishan@uop.edu | Stockton, CA 95211 | --------------------------------------------------

Short and to the point ... I'm trying to find any info. available on tape-backup systems. Namely, I am toying with the idea of attaching a tape-backup to my Amiga. Getting the backup from work was no problem, its afew years old and there is no docs kickin' around for the thing. So I'm hopeing some Guru can help me out/point me in the right direction. The tape backup is: ADIC Data Library (Model #500) Any info on this type of thing will help, I'm completely in the dark on this. Thanks. P.S. I'm also lookin' for a forum dealing with 3B2's; anyone know where this might be? Paul Wolodko paul@ersys.edmonton.ab.ca Edmonton Remote Systems: Serving Northern Alberta since 1982
